DANIEL b. LUCAS the new senator from
West Virginia, is deformed dwarf. He is a
man OF bright intellectual attachments but
excessively irritable and cross grained. He
is sort of Ishmaelite in politics-has his
hand raised against everybody, and will prob
ably create some lively times in congress dur
ing his short term.
The appointment of LUCAS is understood to
be the result of Il deal between him and Gov.
WILSON whereby the latter expects to sue
coed KENNA in the senate. The probabilities
are that both will be succeeded by Republi-
cans.

ADELINA PATTI-I get my check for So, 600

est manager ever had. and in every way
agreeable. Was that a rink / sang in to-
night? Yes! Well you have nice Kinks in
this pait of the country. They would call it
an academy of music in some towns where l
have sung.
PATTI earned her So, 5000 last night. There
is nobody begrudging he: of it. She and

A SURPRISE.

Ed. Register-In these years of surprises
we are prepared for almost anything, and
almost anything is liable to occur. The sur
prise is not modern "invention." The SER
want of the Prophet was surprised to see the
armies of the Lord upon the mountain side.
The blind man was surprised when the great
Master of Souls opened his eyes to see men
as trees, walking. Napoleon was surprised
when Wellington overthrow him. Surprises
are sometimes pleasant and sometimes un-
pleasant. The man who could have bought
the present Granitevile for 500, would be
surprised, painfully, If he could see the en-
terprise and wealth thereof to-day. The
surprise that concerns us most, is the fact,
that last Sunday morning two magnanimous
souls came to our service from Graniteyille
and requested an interview with us. We
have been interviewed so frequently Of late,
that there seemed nothing strange about it.
But, sir, when they pulled a round hundred
on us, they unnamed us entirely. Some
times it is impossible to tell how much you
Appreciated thing. Sometimes one acquires
a readiness of expressing appreciation; but
we haye had so little experience in express
ing appreciation for gifts of this character,
that we are entirely wanting. Let him that
hath said, "Inasmuch as ye hath done it
unto one of the least Of these my brethren,
We have done it unto me" be their reward.
God bless every one who contributed to this
donation and reward them openly.

Ed. Regtster-Our people were consider
ably excited and shocked Il week ago yester-
day by the finding of the body of Joe Chaffin,
in his hut, about mile from town. He liv-
ed the life OF a hermit, and no one paid much
attention to him. He was insane at times,
and it is supposed that he killed himself in
one of those spells. When found he was in
his bed with the muzzle of his gun at his
head and his hand on the trigger. The top
his head was blown off, so it is evident that
he committed suicide. He had been dead at
| least four or five days, for they could not see
any tracks around the door, that had been
made since the rain the Monday before. The
| coroner held an inquest Monday, and he was
buried the same day.
Several of our citizens felt the earthquake

We are sorry to learn of the death of Mrs.
Elizabeth Boyd, who died Thursday, 10th

aged Sc years and a few months. She was a
member of the old Baptist Church and had
been for years, and we have every reason to
believe that she has gone to rest-to that
eternal rest prepared for all those that serve
the Master truly and deyotedly, as did
Grandma Boyd. She leaves a host of friends
and relatives to mourn her loss.
Mr.L. Mathews was seen out at church the

In MemOrlam

Mrs. CYNTHIA HENDERSON, widow of Mr..
Charles X. Henderson, died Jan. 3lst, 1887,
aged seyenty-two years.
Her maiden name was Clark, and she was
a native of South Carolina, whence she came
to Missouri with her widowed mother, who
married MIR. Hawk, so that Mrs. Hender-
son and Mr.. Nelson Hawk were half brother
and sister. She married Mr.. Thomas Strick-
land, by whom she had eight children, six of
whom survive her.
The disease which called her away was
cancer of the stomach. 1t arose about twelve
years ago, and was thought for some years
to be only an aggravated form of dyspepsia,
but about seven years ago it proved to be
unmistakable cancer.
Her sufferings were intense and almost
incessant. Her son, James Strickland, and
his wife, did all in their power to alleviate
her distress, but she accepted death as in
evitable and met it calmly and firmly. She
had been for long time a member Of the
United Baptist Church. TIC.

Not a few in this locality have the 'Califor-
mia fever"-some have it bad, while others
have but slight attack of it. While some
parties, who have passed some time there,
can not be satisfied elsewhere, and are deter
mined to go back and take their own and their
wives people with them, others fault the
country mentioned because of the intense
heat and abundance of dust, &e. Doubtless
it is with California as with other places that
can be found on the globe-it has its advan-
tages and disadvantages; it seems to be a
law of Nature that something attractive and
ENJOYABLE shall be found in every land under
the sun; it seems, however, to be equally
true that no section of the globe is devoid of
drawbacks, in one form or other.
